We had a wonderful stay. The apartment had everything we needed and was in an excellent location for exploring the city on foot. Most importantly, Filomena was an incredibly kind and accommodating host. She was so flexible with both check-in and check-out, which made a huge difference after an overnight flight and while traveling with lots of luggage. We really appreciated the warm welcome and would highly recommend staying here.

A great stay in Porto!

The apartment is in a great part of Porto. Filomena is a great VRBO host. She met us at the apartment to finalize our check in process and gave us many great recommendations and resources to make the most of Porto! Many great restaurants nearby and an excellent craft brewery just right around the corner. Proper accommodations and she gifted us a Douro Valley wine to welcome us in!

Beautiful & Cozy in Porto

Filomena gave us a very thorough orientation to Porto. She was a wealth of information for us. Her flat was spotlessly clean, with gorgeous linens on the bed. It was also very tastefully decorated- much more than other VRBO’ s that we have stayed at. Would definitely stay here again on our next visit to Porto.Rick & CherylCalgary, Canada

My wife and I stayed for a few days in Braga. We loved the location. It was quiet, despite facing the pedestrian street. Maybe it was because we were there in January and it was a bit quieter than perhaps the summer, but rarely heard pedestrians as they walked by.Kitchenette was well supplied. We prepared our own food most days and did not want for anything in the kitchen. Only suggestion we'd have is an overhead light over the counter of the kitchen to make it easier to see when preparing food.Close to groceries, right on the major pedestrian area, close to the train and bus stations.

Porto Gem

This apartment was perfect for our 11 day stay in Porto. It is spacious, spotless and very comfortable. Filomena was there to greet us and show us around the apartment. She has thought of everything to make it feel like home. It is also in a great location, easy access to major sites , restaurants and stores. Bit it is also very quiet. I'd highly recommend.

Amazing apartment close to all you could need

Our host, Filomena, was hugely thorough in guiding us through our stay at the apartment. Her dining recommendations were well appreciated and we did dine at Maria Rita, a great choice. The apartment, for two people, is very generous with two full bathrooms. We were comfortable there the entire visit. The shopping district is a short walk as is the fresh market. Don’t miss it! I will definitely make this property a top choice in the event of a return to Porto!

An amazing cozy apartment!

We really had a great time at Filomena’s place. I wish we could have stayed longer because we didn’t have time to enjoy the outside but the rest of the apartment was as perfect as we thought it would be. It was clean, smelled great, and we loved the mix/combination of old/new elements. Filomena was also very helpful and the self check-in process was simple. We’ll definitely come back if we get the chance to come back to Porto.

Great hot shower after a day of exploring. Quite street .Communication with the host Filomena was exceptional. A nice wine was left for us - it was a nice touch. Would definitely recommend a stay here. Sue
